Sometimes it may be necessary to block access to social media or any other websites for specific devices including smartphones and tablet PCs. This function makes it possible to allow Internet access on schedule only and to specify the web addresses that can be visited or should be restricted. For example, you can disable Internet access for the time when children are supposed to be doing their homework or sleeping. Similarly, you can restrict Internet access inside your office network so that your employees can concentrate on doing their job instead of browsing the web. In some models, the functions of blocking certain websites and restricting Internet access on schedule are combined. I will show you how to configure parental controls with the example of a tippling router. Here we go. Configuring parental controls from a PC. First of all, you need to enter the settings. To do it, type the router address in the browser, enter the login and password, by default, there admin and admin. Go to the tab Parental Controls and enable this function by checking the corresponding box. You can also give the MAC address of the computer, which will control access, that is, the parental PC. The MAC address field shows the MAC address of the computer, which is currently being used to configure the router. If the MAC address of your network card has already been registered with the system, you can click on the button Copy to a bound. To copy this address to the field, MAC address of parental PC. Below, specify the device you want to control. Grab the address of the device for which you want to restrict access or the addresses of the devices to which you would like to apply parental control functions in the field MAC address 1, 2, 3, 4. Otherwise, select the MAC address from the drop-down list and copy it to one of these fields by choosing it from the list. The next tab is to specify the time period during which the controlled computer will be allowed to connect to the Internet. Use when such controls should be applied each day or week and then click End. To remove the time and days you have selected, use the button Clear Skiddle. In the last section, you can specify the Internet addresses that your child or another user will be permitted to access. Click Save to confirm the changes you have made. A little break for a short joke. The guy is smoking and leaving smoke rings into the air. His girlfriend gets irritated with the smoke and says, can't you see the warning written on the cigarette packet? Smokin' is harmful. The boy replies, darling, I'm a programmer. We don't worry about warnings, we only worry about errors. That's a cool joke, and we always get the best stories to amuse you. And back to work, configure parental controls from a smartphone.
